Prayer: How Praying Together Shapes the Church (Building Healthy Churches)

What is the role of corporate prayer in the church? Prayer is as necessary to the Christian as breathing is to the human body―but it often doesn’t come quite as naturally. In fact, prayer in the church often gets subtly pushed to the side in favor of pragmatic practices that promise tangible results. This book focuses on the necessity of regular prayer as a central practice in the local church―awakening us to the need and blessing of corporate prayer by examining what Jesus taught about prayer, how the first Christians approached prayer, and how to prioritize prayer in our congregations. Part of the 9Marks Building Healthy Churches series, which expands on Mark Dever’s popular book Nine Marks of a Healthy Church Examines Jesus’s teaching on prayer and how the first Christians approached prayer in the local church Emphasizes the blessing of prayer in our personal lives and in the life of a local church Includes an appendix that offers advice to pastors and other leaders whose responsibility it is to lead the church in prayer
